About

Neal Banga is a leading figure in the field of minimally invasive transplant surgery, with a particular focus on advancing techniques in kidney transplantation and donor nephrectomy. His research has been instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT), a complex procedure that promises reduced morbidity for recipients. Banga’s most cited work, a 2020 multicenter prospective study from the European Robotic Urology Section (ERUS) series, analyzed outcomes across 10 European centers, providing robust, real-world evidence that has helped standardize the robotic approach and earned 69 citations. Earlier, his 2012 paper on laparoscopic donor nephrectomy techniques cataloged the rapid evolution of minimally invasive instruments and methods, serving as a key reference for surgeons seeking to optimize live-donor recovery. By systematically evaluating these advanced surgical platforms, Banga has helped bridge the gap between open and robotic transplant surgery, directly impacting clinical protocols and patient recovery times. His work remains a cornerstone for researchers and clinicians aiming to expand access to less invasive transplant options.
